A boat-shaped wooden body covered with antelope skin. Tensioning straps made of skin run lengthwise and crosswise across the base of the bowl and are interwoven at three crossing points. The string support is a bamboo cane with two spikes at the end. A broad, cylindrical wooden bridge, wrapped in a piece of skin with a semi-circular opening. Two strings made from twisted ponytail hair. Two windings of goatskin straps for the upper string connection. from Ulrich Wegner: Afrikanische Saiteninstrumente, Staatliche Museen Berlin - SPK, 1984 (Appendix Object Catalogue)
